Before the 1950s, toilets typically used 7 gallons or more for each flush. By the end of the 1960s, toilets were designed to flush with only 5.5 gallons, and in the 1980s the new toilets being installed were using only 3.5 gallons. Today, a new toilet uses no more than 1.6 gallons of water.

And toilets with the "dual flush" feature use even less than the 1.6 gal. standard when you elect to use the water saver mode for flushing a "liquid". These have been very common in Australia and Europe for over a decade, and are used more and more in the US, finally!

Duel flush another Aussie ingenuity.
Yeah, good work, we visited in 2000 and saw them at the hotels in Sydney, Darwin, and Brisbane.
